Obligation to Remove and Collect Airbags
Airbags used in end-of-life vehicles are explosive because they use a gas-generating agent, and for the sake of safety in the recycling process and because toxic sodium azide was used as a gas-generating agent for airbags until 1999, dismantlers are required to "remove, collect, and deliver to the automobile manufacturer, etc.". The dismantling company is obliged to "remove and collect the airbags and hand them over to the car manufacturer, etc.".
*The onboard deploymentservice, which forcibly activates all airbags by energizing them while they are still installed in end-of-life vehicles, can only be performed after concluding a consignment contract (application and registration) with JARP(automobile manufacturer, etc.) and receiving certification from the government (Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry and Ministry of the Environment).
For more information, please see the tab at onboard deployment.
Airbags Pickup and Recycling
Automobile manufacturers and others take back airbags delivered from dismantlers and are responsible for proper recycling and disposal.
Criteria
Automobile manufacturers have established take-back standards to ensure safety in the collection, storage, and transportation processes, as well as to achieve convenience and social efficiency for CFC collectors/dismantlers.
*Please note that, in principle, if a shipment does not conform to the "properties," "packing style," and "pickup method" specified in the pickup standards, the shipment will be refused and the airbags collection fee will not be paid.

Steps to start airbags pickup
Before handing over airbags to a transportation network contractor, we ask for your cooperation in pre-confirmation with JARP. Please review the following procedures and documents and take action accordingly.
(1) Method of pickup and delivery
Please confirm the following "To all those who will be collecting airbags for removal" and respond accordingly.
(2) Arrangement of logistics tools
In order to deliver airbags, they must be stored in a special tool. Please fill out the "Initial Kit Application Form" below and send it to us by e-mail or fax.
Please note that for logistics tools after the first time, the system is based on requesting empty tools when you request a pickup from a transportation network company.
(3) Initial Confirmation
When you receive the distribution tools, please confirm the following "Initial Confirmation of Airbags Collection" and take action. We will confirm in advance that the airbags have been properly handled and packaged.
During the confirmation, we will also use the detailed information of the vehicle, so please confirm the following "How to Use the Detailed Information of the Vehicle" as well.
(4) Confirmation of collection and transportation permit number

(4) Advance Delay Request
What to do in case of delay in delivery of airbags
Dismantlers are required to deliver dismantled vehicles and airbags within 120 days of receipt of end-of-life vehicles, or they will receive a confirmation notice.
However, for those companies that have concluded a consignment contract with onboard deploymentfor the off-site collection of airbags, or who handle a small number of end-of-life vehicles to begin with, the collection cases are not full within 120 days, and a confirmation notice/delayed report is sent out, forcing them to deliver the vehicles after only one or two units are delivered. The number of cases is not full in 120 days.
In light of this situation, if there is a justifiable reason, such as a small number of end-of-life vehicles entering the warehouse, it is now possible to apply for an extension of the period required for delivery of airbags by submitting a prior report to the local government before a delay report is sent out.
If you need to apply, please use the form below.

The following are examples of excellent efforts to publicize and properly handle the offices that were not subject to measures and had excellent performance* in the previous year's onboard deploymentaudits.
We ask that contractors continue to implement and manage their onboard deploymentoperations properly.
*"Excellent performance" is defined as when all of the following are met in an onboard deploymentaudit.
(1) No points were raised in the audit items of "compliance with contractual terms and conditions," "proper onboard deploymentwork," and "proper recording and reporting.
(2) As a result of confirming the number of vehicles equipped with four or more airbags, including seatbelt pretensioners, that have been treated with airbags, all airbags have been properly treated.
